it be fine as a travel clock , but I buy it because the description say it have Indiglo . it do not . you have to press the light button to light up the display . if you want a backlit travel alarm , it be fine . very disappointing . if the listing be correct it would be 4 star . Update : October 29 , 2010 now the backlight do not work at all . I think it be not light up because the battery might be low . nope , new battery in and no light . fail . one star , look elsewhere . now it be too late to order one for my upcoming trip .
